[Wactclc-alma] Does anyone have O'Reilly eBooks?

[Guidry, Wade]

Nicole,

Looks like it’s the match method in the import profile that’s causing the records not to overlay.

Right now, the match method is set to Unique OCLC Identifier.

But the 035 in those records looks like:

(Safari)9780470588055

Which isn’t using one of the OCLC prefixes.

So, for match method, you do the same thing as with Films on Demand.

Specify match method as “035 (Other System Identifier) Match Method

And set the system identifier prefix to (Safari).

Thanks Kirsti! Our authentication is working fine, but after the first load of MARC records I can’t seem to update the collection. I did finally find that it’s O’Reilly for Higher Education so I will take care of the records we have an activate that collection in Alma.

Nicole,

Both North Seattle and Seattle Central subscribe to O'Reilly.  We're using the set-up where users authenticate by creating an individual user account with O'Reilly with their @seattlecolleges.edu email account.

Our O'Reilly sales rep told us "O'Reilly for Higher Education" was the name of the Alma Community Zone electronic collection for the ebook package we got.  I'm just using whatever bib records are in the Community Zone for this package.


It will be ok!

I’m doing some troubleshooting with this database and wonder if others have it as well.
If you do, I have some questions about where to get MARC records.

Feel free to email me personally.
